Sorry, my previous post was sloppy (I was just happy that I figured out my problem guess)
The script I was working on is the "batchRip.scpt" script. I opened it in script editor and made the following changes.
First I ripped out growl due to known issues with it on Snow Leopard.
From:
-- Setup Growl Support: Set useGrowl to yes and set the path to the GrowlNotifyLib.scpt.
property useGrowl : yes -- If you have growl, set to yes. Default is no.
To:
-- Setup Growl Support: Set useGrowl to yes and set the path to the GrowlNotifyLib.scpt.
property useGrowl : no -- If you have growl, set to yes. Default is no.
Then I changed the line that tells system events which disks to grab for the rip from:
tell application "System Events" to set DVDs to name of disks whose capacity is less than 8.589934592E+9
to
tell application "System Events" to set DVDs to name of disks whose capacity is less than 8.589934592E+9 and capacity is greater than 0
Here is the script with my modifications: (again I have ripped out growl due to know issues but I hardly used it so I probably wouldn't put it back in when a growl update is available)
Code: Select all
---------- BatchRip.scpt ----------
---------- Updated: 01-22-2009 ----------
(* This script opens DVDs with FairMount and copies them to a destination folder with a ditto shell script. This script includes support for dual DVD drives installed in a Mac Pro, if two disks are inserted. This script also uses Growl to notify you when completed *)
global diskCount, dvd1Src, dvd1copy, dvd2src, dvd2copy
---------- Properties ----------
-- The output directory for all DVD files. Default is ~/Movies/BatchRip. This folder will be automatically created on first run.
property outputPath1 : "~/Movies/BatchRip"
-- Set ejectDisk to yes if you want your disk(s) to eject when completed. Default is no.
property ejectDisk : no
---------- Optional Properties ----------
-- Dual-Drive: If you have two DVD Drives, you can set a second output directory below to rip two disks at once. The default is ~/Movies/BatchRip2. This folder will be automatically created if 2 disks are mounted and the script is executed.
property outputPath2 : "~/Movies/BatchRip2"
-- Setup Growl Support: Set useGrowl to yes and set the path to the GrowlNotifyLib.scpt.
property useGrowl : no -- If you have growl, set to yes. Default is no.
-- property growlTitle : "Batch Rip"
-- property growlLibraryPath : POSIX file "/Users/dahl/Movies/BatchScripts/GrowlNotifyLib.scpt" -- Set the path to the GrowlNotifyLib.scpt.

but the point is mostly that it means it's really hard to keep the default GUI profiles in sync with the HandbrakeCLI profiles, so I wouldn't be at all surprised should people see some discrepancies.
